After Yuki and Anna Left, Only the Three of Them Remained in the Kendo Club
"Mr. Kuzeha."
Asuna bowed slightly towards Kuzeha.
She could feel Kuzeha's gaze resting on her.
The girl felt shy, yet an inexplicable joy welled up in her heart.
Though she was somewhat embarrassed to have Kuzeha see her dressed like this, if Kuzeha were to actually avert his eyes and not look at her, Asuna would instead feel disappointed and frustrated.
"Now that the outsiders have left, we can begin practice!"
Saeko said softly.
Then, to Asuna's surprise, Saeko removed her outer kendo uniform, revealing the clothes beneath—a military-style outfit with very little fabric!
It showcased Saeko's flawless figure to the fullest!
Despite its revealing nature, it added a sharp, capable aura to her presence.
Asuna's cheeks flushed slightly at the sight.
However, seeing that even Saeko was wearing something similar, Asuna suddenly felt less ashamed.
In fact, a strange sense of competitiveness arose in her.
"Senpai's... size seems bigger than mine..."
At the front, Kuzeha noticed Asuna, who had been somewhat awkward earlier, gradually becoming more natural—even straightening her posture slightly. A hint of surprise flickered in his eyes.
It seemed Asuna's adaptability was much faster than he had expected!
"Then, let's get straight to it!"
Kuzeha addressed the two girls.
Asuna and Saeko immediately adopted serious expressions.
Back then, though Kuzeha had only casually mentioned the possibility of absorbing the Yuuki family, Lady Yukinoshita had acted decisively.
Given that, Kuzeha had no intention of being half-hearted either.
For this young lady of the Yuuki family, who had willingly joined his "harem," Kuzeha planned to teach her properly.
During the last kendo tournament, though Kuzeha had only given Asuna some guidance, he had already grasped the habits of her swordsmanship.
In truth, the Flower Breathing style suited her physique quite well.
However, due to the limitations of her techniques and breathing, she couldn't fully utilize her potential.
Thus, Kuzeha had no intention of making her abandon Flower Breathing.
Asuna's fundamentals were decent enough.
For Kuzeha, all she needed was slight guidance in her techniques and his modified breathing method, and her strength would improve dramatically in a short time!
After listening to Kuzeha's explanation on refining her breathing, Asuna felt as though a veil had been lifted from her mind.
The winding path ahead suddenly widened into a broad, open road!
Overjoyed, she looked at Kuzeha with awe in her eyes.
"Kuzeha... Mr. Kuzeha, can you really teach me this breathing method just like that?"
Precisely because she understood the value of this technique, she felt almost overwhelmed by how easily Kuzeha was willing to pass it on.
"Because I know Yuuki-san would never leak it to others."
Kuzeha simply smiled at her.
Hearing this, the girl froze for a moment.
Since childhood, her mother, Yuuki Kyouko, had subjected her to rigorous elite education.
What was elite education?
A transaction of interests.
Yet here was Kuzeha, casually entrusting her with such a precious technique—this feeling of being trusted filled her heart completely.
"Mr. Kuzeha, I won't betray your trust!"
Asuna declared earnestly.
Kuzeha's lips curled slightly.
Of course, he wasn't as selfless as Asuna believed.
But he genuinely thought that with Asuna's noble character, she wouldn't teach the breathing method to anyone else.
Because of this, once the Butterfly Sisters and the Demon Slayer Corps witnessed Asuna's improvement, how could they remain idle?
Unsurprisingly, Yuuki Kyoko's attitude would grow even more enthusiastic.
And all of this, for Kuzeha, was just a matter of casually sharing an improved breathing method.
Over an hour later.
A sweat-drenched Asuna leaned against the wall.
Her already thin shrine maiden outfit clung to her body, nearly revealing her fair, pink-tinged skin beneath.
But by now, Asuna was no longer as shy as she had been at the start.
Practicing under Kuzeha's guidance was so exhilarating that she had thrown herself into it wholeheartedly.
"Yuuki-san, transferring to Sobu High was the right decision, wasn't it?"
Beside her, Saeko tossed Asuna a bottle of water.
Asuna caught it, glanced at Kuzeha not far away, then nodded firmly.
If that one-minute lesson from Kuzeha at the kendo tournament had opened the door to a new world for her,
then today's hour-long session had made her fully immerse herself in it.
For the first time in all her years of practicing kendo, she found it this enjoyable.
No matter what difficulties she encountered, Kuzeha could effortlessly guide her past them.
All she had to do was open herself up to his instruction, and she could clearly feel her skills improving at breakneck speed!
